[SOLVED] SSD is showing more storage used than it actuallly is using

[alexander0hamilton]

In the setting the storage capacity of the ssd shows that its capacity is 119gb while its used space is 114 gb and free is 5.15gb. While in the OS(C Properties it shows that the capacity is 115 GB and the used is 100 Gb and the free is 5.14 GB. But in my hard drive its normal and both shows the same thing. Can someone help me?

The "Properties" of the C drive is leaving out some hidden consumed space. Probably the pagefile.

And 5GB free space on that drive is not enough. This affects the performance and lifespan.
Increase that free space to 15GB or so.

The pagefile is only using 8192mb and also I freed up some storage to over 20 gb

Yes. "8192mb" = 8GB.
Other things might include the hibernatino file, and others.
